About this listen

A coffee is more than just a morning pick-me-up; it's a journey. A journey that starts with a humble coffee cherry, like Kikti, who lives in the lush hills of Ethiopia.

Kikti is a special coffee cherry. She loves the feel of the wind blowing on her skin, the sound of birds singing in the trees, and the warmth of the sun. But Kikti is also concerned about climate change and other threats that coffee farmers face.

One day, from her hometown in Ethiopia, Kikti is harvested alongside her friend Mulu and taken to a bustling city, where she is processed before being transported to faraway places. Along the way, she experienced different cultures and the intricacies of different cities, including some of the most ancient sites in the world.

But where will Kikti's last destination be? And what awaits her there when she finally arrives?

Best Kept Secret: The Journey of a Coffee Bean, is an enchanting book that follows the surprising and wonderful journey of one plucky coffee bean as she discovers that the world is much larger and more diverse than the field she grew up in and provides valuable lessons we should all learn about coffee and the wider world around us.
